Hi everyone, This may sound like a stupid question, and I know it's off-topic, but with 8,000+ subscribers, somebody on this list has to know the answer. What is the phone number and/or url for Sparco Office Supplies? If you notice, I work for a computer firm doing-business-as 'sparco.com', this has made us the target of *many* customers asking questions related to Sparco Office Supplies (paper products, laminators, various other office items) and Sparco Racing Products (race car seats, belts, leather suits, helmets, etc...). We have located the latter, at www.sparcousa.com, et. al., but cannot locate the former of the two. If any of you decide to google or whatever for the information, please filter it against the information in my signature. Also note we have several 662-32[034] area code / prefix numbers. Beyond that, even the smallest little hint would help. We have tried everything, 411.com, switchboard.com, 411 (pots), paid someone to research for us, you name it, we've tried it, but we still cannot locate Sparco Office Supplies. The funniest part of this, and hopefully enough of you will laugh to make my post peek your interest and try to help me is this: Over the years, we have gotten approximately $100,000 worth of support/customer relations calls (counting 800 number fees, number redirect fees, and employee time) for the above mentioned companies. If we can locate them, their going to get a nice little *BILL* from us :P Thanks guys, Chris -- Christopher L. Wade Unistar-Sparco Computers, Inc.

I don't want to even guess what kinda response this is gonna get... did you even bother using Google? The first result is a store that sells sparco office supplies... perhaps badgering them could turn up a lead? -----Original Message----- From: asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com [mailto:asterisk-users-bounces@lists.digium.com] On Behalf Of Christopher L.

You would have to prove that they have been using your 800 numbers in their advertising or something along those lines. Anyway, considering the volume of calls you are talking about, you might want to consider setting up an office supplies mailorder division and simply take the business that those customers are trying to bring to you in error. rgds benjk -- Sunrise Telephone Systems, 9F Shibuya Daikyo Bldg., 1-13-5 Shibuya, Tokyo, Japan.
